Hi AVRO-1961 [1] comes with a pull request [2] containing tests and AFAIK is fit for merging. If you've any comment don't hesitate :)
It adds the possibility to generate Avro's Pojo with Optional, without requiring Java 8 for avro itself. Is it possible to include it in 1.8.2? Thanks in advance Best joseph [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1961 [2] https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/169
